The town possessed a theatre, and a military band of which his father was the leader, with the result that as a mere boy Guido had the experience of leading the band, playing in the theatre orchestra; he also played the organ and sang in the church choir. At 14 he received a diploma as pianist from the Conservatorio Giuseppe Verdi in Milan where he later studied composition with Arrigo Pebrolo and Giorgio Ghedini. He had early experience conducting opera and concerts at Novara. During the war he was held in a prison camp in Germany. After the war he had many engagements conducting orches- tras in Italy including the orchestra of La Scala in Milan, where his talents came to the attention of Arturo Toscanini. It was through Toscanini's recommendation that he came to this country in 1948 and conducted the NBC Orchestra as guest. He has since conducted this orchestra each season, and a number of orchestras in the United States and in Europe. He conducted the Boston Symphony Orchestra as guest January 30, 31, and February 6, 7, 1953, and on tour in the week following. xelr od-fTlu SIC Established 1910 251 Weybosset St.—Providence 3, R. I.

Edited by Ghedini for modern wind instruments, it was first performed at La Scala in Milan under the direction of Guido Cantelli on September 23, 1952. Mr. Cantelli likewise introduced this work at a concert of the Philharmonic-Symphony Society of New York on March 26, 1953. Herbert F. Peyser, in the New York program, stated that "the Ghedini version has been published by Ricordi and was edited by Ghedini for the 'Settimana Musicale' of the Academia Chigiana of Siena. There the manuscript has been lost and Ghedini has been compelled to write a new version." The instrumentation of Ghedini calls for 3 flutes and piccolo, 2 oboes and English horn, 3 clarinets and bass clarinet, 3 bassoons, 4 horns, 3 trumpets, 3 trombones and tuba. ^ndrea Gabrieli was the uncle of Giovanni Gabrieli (1557-1612), JLJL whose antiphonal music for chorus and brass instruments is more familiar to present audiences.* Andrea was a pupil of Adrian Willaert, * Giovanni Gabrieli's Sonata Pian e Forte was performed at these concerts January 10, 1935 when Sir Adrian Boult conducted, and on November 10, 1950 under the direction of Charles Munch, For Better Luggage To suit the taste iNfilllmft of the most discriminating MUlim/v And Leather Goods ^vjdv^ From a carefully chosen selection VISIT D. <W. ^oundi Co., Xtl 52 Washington Street 180 Wayland Ave. PROVIDENCE, R.

Throughout the 2015/16 season, Muti and the Orchestra have honored the ensemble’s distinguished history with performances of works that received either their world or U.S. premieres from the CSO. The final season program includes two of these works—Bruckner’s Symphony No. 9, which was given its U.S. premiere by the CSO in 1904, and his choral masterwork, Te Deum, which was given its U.S. premiere by the CSO in 1892. Both premieres were led by the CSO’s first music director, Theodore Thomas. Muti opens his June residency with the CSO with a program (June 16–21) that includes Brahms’ Serenade No. 1 and Beethoven’s Violin Concerto with Julia Fischer as soloist. Originally composed as chamber music, Brahms later adapted his Serenade No. 1 for full orchestra, offering a preview of the rich compositional style that would emerge in his four symphonies. The six-movement work is filled with lyrical wind and string passages, as well as exuberant writing in the allegro and scherzo movements.

Fischer’s CSO appearances in June are endowed in part by the Nuveen Investments Emerging Artist Fund, which is committed to nurturing the next generation of great classical music artists. Julia Fischer joins Muti and the CSO for Beethoven’s Violin Concerto. Widely recognized as the first “Romantic” concerto, Beethoven’s lush and virtuosic writing in the work opened the traditional form to new possibilities for the composers who would follow him. The second half of the program features Brahms’ Serenade No. 1. Originally composed as chamber music, Brahms later adapted the work for full orchestra, offering a preview of the rich compositional style that would emerge in his four symphonies. The six-movement serenade is filled with lyrical wind and string passages, as well as exuberant writing in the allegro and scherzo movements. German violinist Julia Fischer won the Yehudi Menuhin International Violin Competition at just 11, launching her career as a solo and orchestral violinist.

  • Le Corsaire Overture, Op. 21
    Any time Joshua Bell makes an appearance, it’s guaranteed to be impressive! I can’t wait to hear him perform the monumental Brahms Violin Concerto alongside some fireworks for the orchestra. It’s a don’t-miss evening! EMILY GLOVER, NCS VIOLIN Le Corsaire Overture, Op. 21 HECTOR BERLIOZ BORN December 11, 1803, in Côte-Saint-André, France; died March 8, 1869, in Paris PREMIERE Composed 1844, revised before 1852; first performance January 19, 1845, in Paris, conducted by the composer OVERVIEW The Random House Dictionary defines “corsair” both as “a pirate” and as “a ship used for piracy.” Berlioz encountered one of the former on a wild, stormy sea voyage in 1831 from Marseilles to Livorno, on his way to install himself in Rome as winner of the Prix de Rome. The grizzled old buccaneer claimed to be a Venetian seaman who had piloted the ship of Lord Byron during the poet’s adventures in the Adriatic and the Greek archipelago, and his fantastic tales helped the young composer keep his mind off the danger aboard the tossing vessel. They landed safely, but the experience of that storm and the image of Lord Byron painted by the corsair stayed with him. When Berlioz arrived in Rome, he immersed himself in Byron’s poem The Corsair, reading much of it in, of all places, St. Peter’s Basilica. “During the fierce summer heat I spent whole days there ... drinking in that burning poetry,” he wrote in his Memoirs. It was also at that time that word reached him that his fiancée in Paris, Camile Moke, had thrown him over in favor of another suitor.

  • Symposium Records Cd 1156
    SYMPOSIUM RECORDS CD 1156 The GREAT VIOLINISTS – Volume VII SHIN-ICHI SUZUKI GEORGE ENESCO JAQUES THIBAUD ZINO FRANCESCATTI At first glance there may appear to be little connection between the four composers on this disc other than their Gallicism, and even that may be disputed in the case of César Franck who was French only by adoption. Certainly there could hardly be a wider contrast of aims and ideals than between Franck, the priest of High Seriousness, and Ravel, the advocate of "le plaisir...d'une occupation inutile". Yet there are important, if unobvious, links. Franck and Fauré were the architects of the revival of French chamber music, and between them inspired what were to become the two main traditions of the late 19th/early 20th century. Chausson was a pupil of Franck, Ravel of Fauré. There is a link, too, in the dedications of two of the works. César Franck dedicated his Sonata to Eugène Ysaÿe as a wedding gift and, we are told, when it was presented to him at a banquet, so moved was he that he performed it, then and there. Chausson's Poème, too, is dedicated to Ysaÿe. After one run-through with piano and one rehearsal with orchestra he gave this piece too, its first performance. (One might add, on a more gruesome note, that both Franck and Chausson died as a result of vehicular accidents: Franck struck by the pole of a horse-omnibus, Chausson thrown over the handlebars of his bicycle.)
